Great vid. Thank you.

I thought it was maybe one of those regional sayings, like, "I'd rather sandpaper an alligator's butthole in a phone booth than do this"
Never heard this before but I'm sure I'll be using it. Lol.

Good morning Tp'rs consider all posts liked :p

I just read all the comments about reducing nic and wondered why people felt they should be reducing nic levels. Is it peer pressure or a general feel of I don't need as much.

Way back when we started on 8mg (misunderstood the amount of nic we were smoking) it worked though and we stopped smoking immediately. Over the years I dropped that to about 6 but not for any reason other than it was easier to mix when I changed brands of nic. Hubby dropped when he went sub ohm because he felt he was getting too much nic.

I decided ages ago that I was happy with my nic content and had no intention of getting lower or even off nic but I find a lot of posts where people have plans to be on zero nic. I know that my body is programmed to function with nic and thats ok by me.
Totally agree. 6mg is a good number for me to stop at and remain. I knew it was the right place for me because as I kept lowering my mgs (for no other reason than at lower mg juice I didnt need to stock as much nic in my freezer) I was perfectly comfortable with going down from one number to the next (18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6). When I was nearing the end of my 6mg juice and was getting ready for 5s I started getting nervous, anxious even. It had never happened before in the 2.5 years it took me to get there. I took it as a sign. I stopped. I'm happy.

I hope not. If so, it won't be long before it's the wife's new pet name for me.

Don't tell her the word!

I get them 5 pounds for 30ml which in us dollars would be like $3, would work out $12 for 120ml. That's why I don't mind getting pre made juices :)
So it sounds like you are in another country?

For me, It was a two part decision. 1) health... higher nic was giving me migraines. 2) money... I can go A LOT longer with a liter of 48 nic when making 3 nic liquids than when making 12 nic liquids.

You must be buying the expensive nic. I thought that was only available up here.

Question: why is it not recommended to use the charging port for devices with removable batteries? If it's bad for the battery then why is a charging port even included?

The recommendation is for dual 18650s in series as the batteries need to be balanced. For single cells, or cells in parallel, it's not an issue.

That said, most chargers will do a better job than the internal board.

Nope. Not good enough.

There are plans for dealing with people like you. ;):lol:

but I think from some stuff I read, that nic is really good for brain function, and I need all the help I can get. :facepalm: :D

:thumb: My sentiments EXACTLY.

It adds a bunch of years when you drop your levels and don't increase consumption.

IF the hammer falls, I'll begin to drop (for this reason only).

But it was not my job to challenge their plan

:thumb: My sentiments EXACTLY.

Nicotine base is probably the cheapest part of vaping. Why not just get more.

The falling hammers.

The only device that I have that takes 2 batteries is my R200, now I know why there's no charging port. Thanks, Shawn!
